Leviticus 17:9

⁷And they shall no longer offer their sacrifices to vain gods after which they go a-whoring; it shall be a perpetual statute to you for your generations.

⁸And thou shalt say to them, Whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the sons of the proselytes abiding among you, shall offer a whole burnt offering or a sacrifice,

— Leviticus 17:9 —

¹⁰And whatever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers abiding among you, shall eat any blood, I will even set my face against that soul that eats blood, and will destroy it from its people.

¹¹For the life of flesh is its blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for its blood shall make atonement for the soul.
